1. Urgent request
There is a fish in the North Ming Dynasty, and its name is Kun.
The Kun is so big that it is unknown how many thousands of miles it is. It turned into a bird, and its name was Peng.
I don’t know how many thousands of miles the Peng has on his back; when it flies in anger, its wings are like clouds hanging down from the sky. It is a bird, and the sea will migrate to Nanming.
Nanming is also the Tianchi. Those who are "Qixie" are also those who are ambitious and strange.
"Xie" says: "The Peng migrates to Nanming Ye, and the water hits it for three thousand miles, and it surges upward for ninety thousand miles, and it goes to rest in six months." Wild Horse Ye, Dust is what living things blow with their breath.
The sky is blue, is it righteous or evil? Is it so far away that it is extremely evil? It looks down upon it, and if so, that’s it. Moreover, if the accumulation of water is not thick, it will not be able to carry a large boat.
Put a cup of water on the col hall, and the boat will be made of mustard; if you place the cup, it will be glued. The water is shallow and the boat is big. If the accumulation of wind is not thick, its large wings will be weak.
Therefore, for ninety thousand miles, the wind is blowing down, and then it is Jin Peifeng; those who carry the blue sky on their backs and do not care about Yaolan, then they are Jin Jiangtunan. Xiaoxue and Xuejiu laughed and said: "I will rise and fly to grab the elm and Fang, but the time will not come and I will control it on the ground. Is it ninety thousand miles to the south?" The abdomen is still clear; if it is suitable for a hundred miles, it will be used to pound grain; if it is suitable for a thousand miles, it will gather grain in three months.
How do you know about the two insects? Small knowledge is not as good as big knowledge, and small years are not as good as big ones. Xi Yi knows this? The morning bacteria don’t know Hui Shuo, and the crickets don’t know Spring and Autumn. This is the small year.
In the south of Chu there are people with dark spirits, who consider five hundred years old as spring and five hundred years old as autumn; in ancient times, there were people with big chuns who considered eight thousand years old as spring and eight thousand years old as autumn. But Peng Zunai has heard about it for a long time now, and everyone is so sad! Tang Zhi asked Jiji too.
To the north of Qiongfa there is the Minghai, Tianchi. There is Yu Yan, whose area is thousands of miles away, and no one knows how to cultivate it. His name is Kun.
There is a bird, its name is Peng, its back is like Mount Tai, and its wings are like clouds hanging from the sky. It holds a sheep's horn and flies up ninety thousand miles away. Nanming also. He scolded Zhi and laughed and said: "He is making fun of Shi Shi? I jumped up, only a few feet away and came down, soaring among the basils. I am also flying here.
And he is making fun of Shi Shi? "This is a small and big debate. The old husband knows that he can serve as an official, his conduct can be compared with that of a village, his virtue can be matched with that of a king, and he can conquer a country, and this is how he sees himself.
But Song Rongzi still laughed. And to praise it to the whole world without admonishing it, to praise it to the whole world without discouraging it, it is determined by the distinction between internal and external, and by arguing about the realm of honor and disgrace, that's it.
He is a person who has never been counted in this world. Although, there are still no trees.
Fuliezi walked against the wind, calm and kind, and then turned around after five days in ten days. He has brought blessings to those who have not yet been counted.
Although this is unnecessary, there is still something to be expected. If you take advantage of the righteousness of heaven and earth and guard against the debate of the six qi, and you want to swim infinitely, you will be treated badly! Therefore, it is said: A perfect person has no self, a god has no merit, and a saint has no name.
Yao ordered the world to be controlled by Xu You, saying: "The sun and the moon are out but the fire does not stop. It is not difficult for the light! When the rain falls but it is still soaking, it is also for the lake. , Isn’t it a waste of time! The master is here to rule the world, but I am still a corpse, and I feel that I am lacking.”
Xu You said: “The master rules the world, and the world is already governed. And I am your son, shall I be a famous one?
What shall I be a guest? The wren nests in the deep forest, but it is only a branch; the gnawing rat drinks from the river, but its belly is full. Return to the king, and I will do nothing for the world! Although the cooks are not in charge, the corpses will not go over the bottles but will be replaced.” I am frightened by his words, which are like rivers and rivers, but are not very human."
Uncle Lian said: "What are they talking about? Said: "There is a god living in the mountain of Miaogushe. His skin is like ice and snow, and he is as wet as a virgin. He does not eat grains, breathes wind and drinks dew, rides on the clouds, rides on flying dragons, and swims across the sea.
His condensation makes things unblemished and ripe, so I don’t believe it.”
Uncle Lian said, “But I can’t compare with the article. , a deaf person can't compare to the sound of bells and drums.
Is it just the body that is deaf and blind? It's like a woman. The virtue of a man is that he regards all things as one. The world is in chaos, so how can the world be concerned about its evils? The earth and mountains are scorched but not hot.
The dust and chaff are like the pottery that molded Yao and Shun. Useless. Yao governed the people of the world and regulated the internal affairs of the sea. When he went to see the mountain of Miugushe, the fourth son, and the sun of the Fen River, he suddenly lost his world.
Huizi said to Zhuangzi: "The king of Wei gave me the seeds of a big gourd, and my tree grew into a five-stone tree. It is used to hold water slurry, but it is so strong that it cannot lift itself.
Cut it open If I think it is a gourd, it will fall into nothing. It is not a big thing, so I will pick it up because it is useless.” Those who don't know how to use the medicine will always make a living by drinking it.
If you hear about it, please buy it for a hundred gold.
They gathered their clansmen and conspired and said: "I have been making money all my life, but I can only count a few gold. Now I have the skills to sell hundreds of gold, please help me."
The guest got it and told the king of Wu. The more difficult it became, the king of Wu sent his generals to fight with the Yue people in the water in winter. They defeated the Yue people, split the ground and sealed it.
It is the same whether it can be used without turtle hands; whether it can be sealed, or it can not be free of wetness, the use is different. If you have a five-stone gourd today, why don't you worry about it becoming a big gourd and floating in the rivers and lakes, and worry about the gourd falling down and not being able to contain it? Then Master, you still have a humble heart! Huizi said to Zhuangzi, "I have a big tree, and people call it acanthus."
The main stem is swollen but not straight, and the small branches are curled but not regular. The craftsman does not care about the way he builds it.
My words are big but useless, and everyone will follow suit. Zhuangzi said: "You alone don't see the raccoon dog?" He humbles himself and lies down to wait for Ao; he jumps from east to west without distinguishing between high and low; he falls into the trap of chance and dies in vain.
Now I am weighing the ox, which is as big as a cloud hanging from the sky. This can be great, but it cannot hold a rat.
Nowadays, I have a big tree, but I am worried that it is useless. Why not plant it in a land where there is nothing, a vast wilderness, where I am wandering and have nothing to look at, and I am so carefree that I can sleep under it. It's a waste of money and a harmless thing. It has nothing to use, so it's hard to live in peace! ". 2. Looking for a full translation of "Xiaoyaoyou", a classical Chinese text for high school students.
Translation: There is a fish in the North Sea, and its name is Kun.
Kun is so big that I don’t know if it has Thousands of miles. Kun transformed into a bird, and the bird's name was Peng.
Peng's back was soaring, its wings were like clouds hanging in the sky. /p>
This bird will move to the South China Sea when the sea is strong and the wind blows.
There are strange words in "Qi Xie". Said: "When Peng moved to the South China Sea, he fluttered his wings and beat the water, and the waves were thousands of miles away.
It flew tens of thousands of miles into the sky in a whirlwind. Leaving the North Sea with strong June winds. ”
The mist in the mountains and the dust in the air are all the result of the breath of living things. Is the sky dark blue, its true color? Or is it because the sky is so high that there is no end in sight? Peng Cong Looking down from a high altitude, it is nothing more than this.
Besides, if the water is not accumulated deeply, then it will not have the strength to carry a large ship. If you pour a glass of water in a low place in the hall, you can only use grass as it. If a cup is placed on the boat, it will touch the ground. The reason is that the water is too shallow and the boat is too big. If the wind is not strong, its huge wings will not have the strength. Peng flew tens of thousands of miles into the sky, with the wind just below him.
Carrying the sky on his back, nothing could hinder him. Then he planned to fly south. Cicada and Xuejiu laughed at Peng. Said: "I take off all of a sudden and stop when I encounter trees such as elms and sandalwood trees. Sometimes if I can't fly, I just fall to the ground."
Where is the need to fly tens of thousands of miles into the sky and then fly south? "People who go to the countryside only need to prepare three meals a day, and their stomachs are still full when they come back; people who go a hundred miles away pound rice the night before to store dry food; people who go thousands of miles away need to spend several Store dry food for months.

Source of this article: Xiaozhi does not understand Dazhi, and his life span is short. I don’t know about long life. How do you know it is like this? The morning fungus does not know the beginning and end of a month, and the cricket does not know the spring and autumn in a year.
This is a short life. In the southern part of the Chu State, there is a tree called Ming Ling, which takes five hundred years as spring and five hundred years as autumn. In ancient times, there was a large chun tree that took eight thousand years as spring and eight thousand years as autumn. Qiu; This is longevity.
Peng Zu is now famous for his longevity. Isn’t it sad for ordinary people to compare with him? Download more resources from: I Love Chinese. This is what Chinese Tang Wenjian said.
In the far north where no vegetation grows, there is a deep black sea, which is a pool of nature. There is a fish there, which is thousands of miles wide and unknown. Its name is Kun. Its name is Peng. Its back is like Mount Tai and its wings are like clouds hanging in the sky. > Peng flew thousands of miles into the sky in a whirlwind, passed through the clouds, carried the blue sky on his back, and then planned to fly south, about to reach the South China Sea. He scolded it and said, "Where will it go?" I jumped and flew upwards. I fell down no more than a few feet high and flew back and forth among the basil. This was the maximum limit of flying. But where was it going to fly to? "This is the difference between small and big.

So those talents are enough to grant an official position, the conduct is consistent with one party, and the morality is consistent with one party. The monarch's will and ability make the people of a country trust him, and they treat him like a scold.
Song Rongzi sneered at these people. Besides, everyone in the society praised Song Rongzi, but he did not. Because of this, he worked harder and everyone in society criticized him, but he did not become more depressed because of this.
He was able to recognize the difference between himself and external things, and distinguish the boundaries between honor and disgrace. Stop. He has nothing to pursue in this world.
Even so, he still has no realm to establish.
Liezi flew on the wind, floating and light, and returned after fifteen days.
He did not desperately pursue the matter of attracting good fortune. Although this does not require walking, it still depends on the wind.
As for those who conform to the nature of heaven and earth, grasp the changes of the six qi, and travel in the boundless realm, what else can they rely on? Therefore, it is said: A perfect person has no self, a god has no utility, and a saint has no reputation. 3. The ancient text "Xiaoyaoyou"

Translation of the classical Chinese text "The Biography of Han Yanzhi"
Han Yanzhi, courtesy name Ziwen.
A native of Suide (now Suide, Shaanxi Province). His birth and death dates are unknown, and he lived in the 12th century.
He was born in Jiangmen, the son of Han Shizhong and Liang Hongyu, national heroes and famous anti-gold generals, and the eldest son of Han Shizhong. Influenced by his family, Han Yanzhi had a strong idea of ??loyalty to the emperor and the country when he was young.
He passed the Jinshi examination in Shaoxing in the 18th year, and subsequently held various official positions in the capital and local governments. In the second year of Qiandao, he served as the official of the Ministry of Household Affairs, commanding the Huaidong Army's maqianliang, and achieved remarkable achievements. In the seventh year of Qiandao, he served as the commander-in-chief of all the armies stationed in Ezhou and strictly trained the army.
At the beginning of the Chunxi period, he was appointed as the envoy to send money. In the fifth year of Chunxi's reign, when he was in charge of Wenzhou, he compiled "Yongjia Ju Lu", which was the world's first monograph on citrus.
In his later years, Han Yanzhi devoted himself to learning, collecting historical events since the Song Dynasty and writing the book "Shui Xin Jing", with 167 volumes in total. After his death, the emperor gave him the title of Duke of Qichun County. 5. Why is Zhuangzi’s classical Chinese essay "Xiaoyaoyou" the title of "Xiaoyaoyou"?
"Xiaoyao" is also written as "xiaoyao", which means to travel leisurely and contentedly; "Xiaoyaoyou" means to travel without any restraints , move freely.
The full text can be divided into three parts. The first part is "The Nameless Saint", which is the main body of this article. By comparing many examples of people who cannot be "free", it is shown that in order to truly achieve the state of freedom, one must "No self", "no merit", "no name". The second part to "Xiaoran loses his world" follows the previous part and further elaborates, explaining that "selflessness" is the only way to get rid of all kinds of constraints and dependence. As long as you truly forget yourself and everything, you can achieve freedom. Only those who are "selfless" are the ones with the highest spiritual realm. The remaining part is the third part, which discusses what is truly useful and useless, explaining that we should not be stagnate by things, but should make use of the useless, further expressing our opposition to actively participating in social activities, and our ambition to pursue a leisurely and contented life without any restraint.
Therefore, why "Xiaoyaoyou" is based on "Xiaoyaoyou".
If you think it is too much, you can just write the first paragraph. 6. An autobiography in classical Chinese to be written by a Chinese teacher
My surname is () and my surname is (), from the capital city. I am in my twenties. I like to study ancient Chinese alone in a cold cottage and hate the chaos of the world of mortals.
Everyone in the world says: "Life is short, enjoy yourself now." Yu Shen disagrees.
The feasting and feasting, the clouds and smoke passing by suddenly, the carmine powder, the last cup of loess. How can it be compared to the world in the book, the carefreeness of Yu Guanzhuang and Zhou, and the wisdom of Confucius and Mencius? However, we can't compare to it, and we are very envious of it.
The road ahead is vast and a true friend is hard to find, so I would rather stay alone at the green lantern and lie down on my pillow. Wouldn't it be nice to sing songs while drinking wine, and howl proudly at the bright moon?
Hearing this, I felt so depressed that I felt so depressed. Meng De said: "I am an old man, and I am determined to be thousands of miles away." I dare not forget it.
Little did he know that the world was in a hot and cold state, and his ambition was in vain. Once I succeed, I can watch my dragon soar thousands of miles away, and it will be nothing more than a shallow reef. 7. The Biography of Yu Qian in Classical Chinese
In the Jianwen, it was requested to limit the land to monks and Taoists, and no one should have more than ten acres, and the rest would be given to the poor. Follow it.
In Yongle's first year, he was called Shaoqing of Dali Temple. There are edicts from time to time. In the Jianwen, those who proposed to change the old system were all told. Qian Nai apologized beforehand. Seeing his fear, the emperor smiled and said: "This scholar is like an old man and a Buddha." Shi Fu asked. But the monks and Taoists have limited land. The Procuratorate of the Metropolitan Procuratorate approved the crime of fraud and deception.
Hongwu's list of officials was the first to show favoritism. Qian said: "It is better to judge the crime according to the imperial edict, and to use deception as a stick. The owl's head is not what the imperial edict means." The emperor followed. Tianjin Weicang disaster caused hundreds of thousands of stones of grain to be burned. The censor said that the master embezzled a lot and set fire to himself. If several hundred or eight hundred people were arrested, hundreds of them should die. If you are modest, you will be able to reduce the excess.
In the seventh year, the emperor visited the north, and the crown prince Zuo Qian was appointed as the right deputy censor of the capital. Next year, Du Qin, together with Du Qin, visited Huaihe and Feng arrived in Chenzhou to deal with the disaster. They were exempted from land rent and redeemed the children of the people. Next year, Qian asked for help, and the prince said: "The army and the people are in dire straits, but you calmly ask for help, how can you be like a human being?" Xun was ordered to supervise the grain supply of the two Zhejiang, Su, and Song prefectures, and transport it to the south, Beijing, and Xuzhou. , Huai'an. The rich people bribed the officials and led them to the nearby land, while the poor people had more luck. Qian suggested dividing them into four categories: those with the least Ding grain should be shipped to Beijing, those with the next smallest grain should be shipped to Xuzhou, those with Ding grain and others should be shipped to Nanjing and Huai'an, and those with more Ding grain should be kept in the mainland. The people depend on it. He also said: The two floods in Xuzhou and Luliang caused many obstacles for the boat. Please add 200 men for every flood, and give them to the villagers every month; and 100 official oxen, and listen to the people plowing in their spare time. When the big boats arrive, they can be used to pull them. People take it for granted. If you try to supervise the transportation of wood, you will suffer a serious epidemic. With humility and order to disperse, the epidemic will subside. Not long after, he promised to be able to patrol Zhejiang.
Renzong ascended the throne, summoned him back, and changed him to the minister of Dali Temple. At that time, Lu was promoted to Shaoqing and looked up to him as prime minister, while Qian recommended Yan Ben as the temple leader. The emperor was cautious in punishing people in prison, and the others also paid careful attention to their duties. Whenever the Dharma Master and the four parties are imprisoned, I will wait and see again and again to find peace. The speaker said: "He has no regrets, and I have no regrets." The seven things mentioned in the edict of Chang Ying are all in line with current affairs. There are those who say that his performance is not secret and his favor is given to outsiders. The emperor was angry and demoted Shaoqing. One day, Yang Shiqi finished his work and refused to retreat. The emperor asked: "What can you say that is not Yu Qian?" Shiqi said that his accusation was false, and he said that Qian had served in three dynasties and gained the status of a minister. The emperor said: "I also regret it." Then he ordered him to be reinstated. Xuan Zong was established and said modestly: "In the old system, those who committed capital crimes were punished with life-long imprisonment. Now the crimes are not equal, and the years should be divided according to the severity." The report can be made. He died in office in March of the second year of Xuande. Modesty and beauty, dignified style. I am a master of poetry and painting, and I am proud of my talent. Su Zan, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, said that he was contemptuous of his superiors, and he was always unhappy. 8. Classical Chinese translation of "The Biography of Liu Song"
Liu Song, courtesy name Zi Gao, was from Taihe. His original name was Liu Chu. He came from a poor family and studied hard. There was no fire in the cold weather, and his hands were cracked by the cold, but he still continued to copy. He has been very knowledgeable since childhood and is honest and cautious by nature. The three brothers live together in a thatched house with fifty acres of thin farmland. After he became famous, he did not add any land.
I used a cloth quilt for ten years until it was bitten by a mouse and then replaced it. However, I still repaired it and turned it into clothes for my son. When he was an official, he never let his family members accompany him. When he took office in Peiping, he only brought a book boy with him, and sent him back after arriving in Peiping. In the evening, when the officials got off work, he would be the only one reading by himself, often until dawn. He is good at writing poems, and people in Yuzhang praise him as the "Master of the West".
Original text:
Liu Song, courtesy name Zigao, was born in Taihe and his old name was Chu. The family was poor in mechanics and had no fire, and his hands were chapped but he couldn't stop recording notes. Songyou is erudite and honest and prudent by nature. The three brothers live together in Maowu, with fifty acres of land. It's expensive and has no benefit. After ten years, a cloth quilt was injured by a rat, and then he changed it. He still used it to clothe his son. When he was an official, he did not feel tired of his family. When he was appointed to Peiping, he took a boy with him and sent him back when he arrived. In the afternoon, when the officials retired, they would study alone and often reach the end of the year. He was good at poetry, and his ancestral home in Yuzhang was known as "Xijing".
This article comes from "History of the Ming Dynasty·Liu Song Biography" by Zhang Tingyu of the Qing Dynasty
Extended information
Writing background:
"History of the Ming Dynasty" is twenty The last of the Four Histories has three hundred and thirty-two volumes, including twenty-four volumes of chronicles, seventy-five volumes of chronicles, two hundred and twenty volumes of biographies, and thirteen volumes of tables. It is a chronological history that records the 276 years of history from the first year of Hongwu (AD 1368) by Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty to the seventeenth year of Chongzhen (AD 1644) by Zhu Youjian, Emperor Sizong of the Ming Dynasty.
In the fourth year of Kangxi (1665), the Museum of Ming History was reopened, but was suspended due to the compilation of "Records of the Ancestors of the Qing Dynasty". In the 18th year of Kangxi's reign (1679), with Xu Yuanwen as the supervisor, he began to compile the History of the Ming Dynasty. In the fourth year of Qianlong's reign (1739), the manuscript was finalized and submitted for publication. "History of the Ming Dynasty" is the one that took the longest time to be compiled by official history books in the history of our country. From the opening of the Ming History Museum in the second year of Shunzhi of the Qing Dynasty (1645) to the formal presentation by historians to the emperor in the fourth year of Qianlong's reign (1739), it took ninety-four years. If the team was formally organized to compile the book in the 18th year of Kangxi's reign (1679) until the manuscript was submitted, it would have been a full sixty years.
Another reason for the lack of success in the first stage of compilation of "History of the Ming Dynasty" is the lack of historical materials and insufficient manpower. At that time, not only did they not have the strength to organize the Ming Dynasty's manuscripts and archives, but when soliciting books, there were very few book contributors. Even the most basic historical records of the Ming Dynasty were incomplete. The records of the Tianqi Dynasty were missing parts after seven years, and the records of the Chongzhen Dynasty were missing. There are no actual records due to the country's subjugation. All these factors have also restricted the progress of the compilation of "History of the Ming Dynasty".
